Unmountable: unsupported or no file system

Featured Replies

Good morning,

 

Hope someone can help.  My server went down and I needed to replace the USB key, I also decided to upgrade my equipment at the same time.  When I booted my server back up and attempted to start the array my parity drive would connect but told me all data would be overwritten and 2 of my 4 drive both showing as Unmountable: unsupported or no file system.

 

They are XFS formatted, I attempted to do a few xfs_repair but no luck.  Any thing else I can do to attempt to get the drive back connected or get the data off.

With the array started, post the output from:

 

wipefs /dev/md1p1

and

wipefs /dev/md2p1

 

Note that despite the name, that won't wipe anything.

Yes, there are multiple filesystem signatures, so blkid doesn't retune any.

 

You can just delete the extra signatures with wipefs, this should be perfectly safe, but just in case, recommend making sure backups are up to date of any important data.

 

If you need to backup, you can mount the pool manually with:

mkdir /x mount -t btrfs /dev/nvme0n1p1 /x

 

You can then see the pool contents under /x and copy the data somewhere else.

 

 

To correct the issue type:

 

wipefs --backup -a -t ntfs,dos /dev/nvme0n1p1

 

After that, confirm only the btrfs signature is left, and if yes, v7 should now mount the pool.

@JorgeB  I found a similiar issue with mulitple lines that you helped out for a cache drive.  Would I want to do a similar but set it to below for both drive?   I don't know if the zfs_member is correct to only remove ZFS reference and keep xfs.

 

wipefs --backup -a -t zfs_member /dev/md1p1

Yes, the command is correct, and it should fix the issue once for all, and it should be safe to run.

 

Another option would be to click on the disks and set the fs to xfs instead of auto, but that's a workaround, you would get the same issue in the future in auto.
